Game On

The arcade lives in on in a big way at Strip property

It’s good to have a go-to place to dine in Las Vegas, a show to see in mind and a favorite table game. It’s also good to know the locations of video game arcades on the Strip. Some are hidden in a corner of a resort or connected to another attraction. The Arcade at Horseshoe, easy to find and expansive at 7,000 square feet, stands on its own in the center of the Strip.

Horseshoe Las Vegas occupies the address formerly belonging to Bally’s at the southeast corner of Las Vegas

Boulevard and Flamingo Road. Inside Horseshoe Las Vegas is a food court, and near that food court is the modern vision of a video game arcade with more than 80 options illuminated by neon glow.

Traditional favorites such as SkeeBall and air hockey vie for attention with virtual entertainment inspired by King Kong and Mission: Impossible

Shoot hoops at a Rock the Rim station. Discover how Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is adapted into an arcade feature. Claw for a prize with Big One Extreme. Whack a clown with Whack a Clown. Enter the House of the Dead, try Monster Drop or take a wild ride with Virtual Rabbids.

There are plenty of pints for parents who are less interested in pixels, but there’s nothing like a game of air hockey to make a grown-up feel like a kid again. –Matt
